Home / Awards & medals / Alfred Wegener Medal & Honorary Membership / 2004 / Gérard Mégie
In this capacity, Gérard Mégie was responsible for the supervision of international reports on the status of the stratospheric ozone layer in 1958 and 2002. Gérard Mégie, born in 1946, holds a Ph.D. in science (1976). Professor at the Université Pierre et Marie Curie since 1988, he has been a member of the Institut Universitaire de France since 1998.
Home / Awards & medals / Augustus Love Medal / 2008 / Richard J. O'Connell
The work has relevance in a huge variety of geological settings, as well as in the modeling of plate boundary processes, and it remains a key reference in the field. Professor Richard O’Connell’s achievements have placed him at the forefront of geophysical research for three decades, and his career has been distinguished by seminal contributions to our understanding of mantle processes.
Home / Awards & medals / Outstanding Young Scientist Awards / 2010 / Valerio Lucarini
Prof. Lucarini’s work on the water budget of the Danube. Basin has been applied to the development of flood maps in Europe (de Moel et al. 2009), and his recent studies of multiscale variability in deterministically chaotic dynamical systems is pertinent to the development of stochastic parameterizations in operational weather/climate prediction models.
Home / Awards & medals / Fridtjof Nansen Medal / 2021 / Richard S. Lampitt
This style of work offers a clear example of how Lampitt has moved the field of ocean sciences forward in a substantive and impactful manner.

Aspects of geospatial technologies are of increasing importance in many areas of employment concerned with the landscape, for example in national and local government (where the appearance of 'Geodata Service Units' is increasing), in nature conservation agencies, in hydrocarbon exploration and oilfield management, in environmental consultancy, civil engineering projects and marine and coastal zone management.
Home / Awards & medals / Hannes Alfvén Medal / 2019 / Daniel N. Baker
His efforts include chairing national committees on societal and economic impacts of the space weather and the publication in Nature of a paper on the distortion of the Van Allen belts arising from the severe geomagnetic storm in 2003, called the ‘Halloween storm’. He has led several U.S. National Academy studies and reports in this regard.
Home / Awards & medals / Division Outstanding Young Scientist Awards / 2013 / Yong Wei
Further, his paper at the last EGU conference on the expansion of the ionosphere of Venus in tenuous solar wind was selected as a paper of special interest. Wei is a young researcher with outstanding abilities in the analysis of space science data, in combination with observations from a broad range of geophysical research areas, with a wide knowledge of new results in geology, geophysics and planetology.
Home / Awards & medals / Hannes Alfvén Medal / 2004 / Forrest Mozer
Forrest Mozer The 2004 Hannes Alfvén Medal is awarded to Forrest Mozer for his pioneering work on electric field measurements in space plasma. Forrest S. Mozer received his Ph. D. from California Institute of Technology (CALTECH) in 1956.

Home / Awards & medals / Outstanding Student Poster (OSP) Awards / 2015 / Suzanne Lutfalla
The awarded poster presented results on the influence of the mineralogy on multidecadal carbon persistence in the bare fallow of Versailles (France), I showed that contrasted mineralogies at the fine scale (clay fraction, < 2µm) led to differences in carbon dynamics in terms of both carbon content and mechanism involved.
